Adobe-AEM-Brightcove Connector: Installation

This topic covers the installation of the Brightcove connector for Adobe Experience Manager (AEM).

Introduction

The Adobe-AEM-Brightcove Connector allows you to manage Brightcove Video Cloud videos and players within AEM, and easily embed videos in AEM pages.

Note that this guide uses AEM 6.3. The connector also works with AEM 6.2, and the steps are similar.

Getting Started

If you do not already have an AEM dev instance, you can easily create one using the AEM Quickstart .jar file:

java -Xmx1400M -jar AEM_6.3_Quickstart.jar

If you use this Quickstart, your AEM instance will be hosted at: http://localhost:4502 by default. The following sections will assume this default location, so if you are using a different location or port, you will need to adjust the URLs shown in the steps, or use the AEM navigation menu instead.

Installing the connector

The following steps will walk you through installing the connector using the classic interface.
